Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter of the match:

Tillakaratne Dilshan:

Tillakaratne Dilshan has started this year's campaign on a brilliant note and has notched up a century in his first game against the Australia Legends already. The right-hander hit 14 fours and four sixes in his stupendous knock and took his side to a huge total in the end. The skipper will be looking to continue his good form in the remainder of the tournament. 

Probable best bowler of the match:

Nuwan Kulasekara:

Nuwan Kulasekara had a decent outing for the Sri Lanka Legends in the previous game and he cleaned up the tail quickly to guide his side to victory. The medium pacer finished with 4 for 36 in his four overs but surprisingly, did not take any wickets with the new ball which is an area he thrives on usually.
